Correct answer: A. D, B, C, A
Explanation
MNRE's estimates (around 2022) are: geothermal about 10 GW, biomass about 28 GW (including bagasse cogeneration), wind about 695 GW (at 120 m hub height) and solar about 748 GW. Increasing order: D, B, C, A. The key shows B, which wrongly ranks biomass below geothermal. The newer wind estimate at 150 m (about 1,164 GW) would put wind above solar (D, B, A, C), but biomass still comes above geothermal.MNRE के अनुमान (लगभग 2022): भू-ताप लगभग 10 GW, बायोमास लगभग 28 GW (खोई सह-उत्पादन सहित), पवन लगभग 695 GW (120 मीटर हब ऊँचाई पर) और सौर लगभग 748 GW। बढ़ता क्रम: D, B, C, A। कुंजी में B दिया है, जो बायोमास को भू-ताप से नीचे रखता है, जो गलत है। 150 मीटर पर पवन का नया अनुमान (लगभग 1,164 GW) पवन को सौर से ऊपर कर देगा (D, B, A, C), किंतु बायोमास तब भी भू-ताप से ऊपर ही रहता है।More People, Development and Environment questions
